If you're still using an old Teflon pan, it's time to upgrade. Nonstick cookware technology has come a long way, and I have a new favorite that updates and replaces my previous recommendation. Scanpan CTX is the best non-stick cookware money can buy, and though it's not cheap, its many features justify the premium price (fry pans run $80-150
). It features a 5-ply aluminum and stainless steel fused construction for exceptionally even heat, and a ceramic-titanium non-stick surface that is
- Metal-utensil safe
- Dishwasher Safe
- Oven Safe to 500°F
- Induction-compatible
- PFOA-free
The cookware features riveted, hollow, stay-cool handles, and glass-windowed lids. It's durable, professional-quality weight, and warrantied for life. You don't need a whole set, but you should definitely have at least a fry pan. Buy it with free shipping at
Amazon.com.
i know these pans, almost all of them except for the 11 inch saute pan actually and I love them, i use metal utensils, though you see little scuff marks, as you would on tradtional SS pans the non stick properties are not affected at all. i can throw them in the dish washer for a quick wash but make sure you dont use any phophorus or it will tarnish the ss. I did find a flaw, it's hard as hell to keep SS clean and using bar keepers friend will take away that beautiful polish finish. Scanpan sells a cleaner for SS and copper that i found an purchased on amazon.uk for llike 30 bucks. i found out it's made by hillmark so you maybe able to find the off brand cheaper.
